Procedure

4,8-Bis[(2-hexyldecyl)oxy]-benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene (0.80 g, 1.19 mmol) was dissolved in dry THF (10 mL) under nitrogen. The solution was cooled to −70° C. and butyllithium (1.0 mL, 2.M solution in hexanes, 2.5 mmol) was added dropwise. The reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature over 2 hours and cooled back to −78° C. Trimethyltin chloride (0.61 g, 3.0 mmol) was added. The reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred under nitrogen overnight. Water (50 mL) was added and the reaction was extracted with ether. Organic layer was separated and dried over Na2SO4. Solvent was removed under vacuum. To the residue was added ethanol (10 mL) and the suspension was stirred overnight. The resulting white solids were collected by filtration and dried under vacuum to afford the product 4,8-bis[(2-ethylhexyl)oxy]-2,6-bis(1,1,1-trimethyl-stannanyl)benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene (0.58 g, 49%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ=7.52 (m, 2H), 4.17 (d, J=5.0 Hz, 4H), 1.86 (m, 2H), 1.67 (m, 4H), 1.28-1.55 (m, 44H), 0.86 (m, 12H), 0.55 (m, 18H).
